"I confess I did some sea kayaking myself once upon a time. It sure was good exercise."
Truth be told, I love it! Every morning during the summer at the cottage (where there is no infernal computer!), I go out at 5:30 for a two mile paddle. Great exercise, then coffee, a shower and off to the office. I must say that by the middle of last summer, I hadn't felt so good in 20 years! I can't wait for ice out!
Here's mine. (Well, this particular one is not mine, but it looks just like it.) It's not as easy for me to go out, though. It's a mile down and around the lake to the community beach, and I have to use the wife's car because this boat is rather a bit longer than my car, not to mention its cab!
